In most of the modern distros by default is loading nouveau for nvidia

on all known keys (example, Alt+SysRq+B). Logs was clear with 0 bytes.
Problem was solved by change card for an older nvidia 9x00 and
installing proprietary driver. After changing card was all fine. Card
was checked for problems with some tests, all were passed.

Yes, this is quite annoying.
I recall I upgraded Ubuntu and rebooted only to encounter this hang.
I can't even boot up some of the live CDs (Ubuntu, Linux Mint, ...) without bypassing nouveau.
I've switched back to the proprietary driver and everything is fine.
But we need to get to the bottom of this.

The nouveau driver does not appear to provide acceleration (at least for
the moment) with GT240 cards. You can get X to start, however, by using
Option "NoAccel" "true"
In your X config.
It is painfully slow though, so the only real option is to use the
proprietary NVidia driver.
The KMS/Nouveau framebuffer works as well, but again without
acceleration, I have a copy of the dmesg output as it loads the driver
and will upload if it will be useful; I guess the devs know of this
issue with GT240's though.

there is no general problem with nouveau and nv92, which is one of the most common chipsets and works without problems for the most of us.
So you have to be more specific about what problems you do encounter in

That is the right kernel. Can you describe exactly what it is that you
can reproduce? Logs? etc. See http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs/
for what we need.
[I know some of the bugs I marked as a dup of this one had that for old
versions, but I'd still like to see updated info.]

It locks up before the probe is even done! One thing to check -- do you
have any old firmware in /lib/firmware/nouveau? You shouldn't need any
firmware to run nva3 (except the video firmware if you want vdpau).
Also, could you produce a log with
drm.debug=14 nouveau.debug=trace
That might provide more info as to what's going on.

Does it mean that the bug somewhere in nv50_grctx_generate? Just to be sure that bug in this function, is it possible to replace it using data from mmiotrace of nvidia driver? For me it is not obvious how to modificate nv50_grctx_fill in that case, what nv50_grctx_init should write to *size and, after all, may it help somehow?

Oh well. Indeed the values in your mmiotrace are different, but your and
Andrew's mmiotrace are the only traces I've seen that actually have the
writes to those 0x10fxyz registers. (A few other traces have writes to
the similar-but-different DDR3 registers.)
And yes, I definitely did want to use offsets[o] in my patch.
Well, perhaps this 0x10f stuff has nothing to do with the issue. My
observation was that it seemed like for all the people it was broken for
had GDDR5 ram, which is why I went in this direction.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
I can't boot Ubuntu 10.10 on my PC with NVIDIA GeForce GT 240 (PCIe 16x). Instead login screen I see [attachment DSC00391.JPG].
Ctrl+Alt+Del and SysRq+B don't work.
Why Ubuntu use experimental (nouveau) driver?!? :
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - X.Org X server -- Nouveau display driver (experimental)
WORKAROUND:
I must install Ubuntu from alternate CD and boot to text mode and uninstall these packages: nouveau-firmware, xserver-xorg-video-nouveau and install nvidia-current package.
WORKAROUND: Try boot live cd with "nomodeset" option. It works for me
on GeForce GT 240.
